Here's a custom Lego Ghostbusters figure I put together this week... ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y85/raggletag01/100_94912.jpg) ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y85/raggletag01/100_95282.jpg) ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y85/raggletag01/100_95102.jpg) ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y85/raggletag01/100_95792.jpg) The main body is the Nazi motorcycle rider from one of the new Indiana Jones Lego sets, but with the standard Lego "hair helmet" on top and a few parts painted (boots, belt, elbows, "no ghosts" symbol). The proton pack and particle thrower were made from cannibalized "Stikfas" figure parts, the round portion of the proton pack is a clothing button, the cord from pack to thrower is a twist tie, and the ecto-goggles were made from a miscellaneous toy piece I can't even identify. All the custom parts were painted up to match, and super glued into place. I decided to christen it "Ray Stantz", as it looks the most like him with the hair style and ecto-goggles. The figure is much smaller in real life, btw, only about 1.5 inches high. -Tony

Hey man - commented on the blog, but again - Ecto-1Gotta do it! I agree - it totally looks like Ray. The first thing I thought of when I saw him (especially with the goggles up like that) was when Ray found Slimer - "Venkman....! Venkman.....!!" The only thing else you would need is the cigarette in mid-fall.

Thanks, and wow, that custom Ecto-1 you posted the link to is amazing!! It'd be cool to make one for myself someday, but it probably wouldn't look as nice as that (unless I flat-out copied it).

Awesome, Raggletag! I was thinking it looked like Ray even before you mentioned naming it. And for some reason, the quote that came to mind was "If someone asks you if you're a god, you say YES!"
